According to Shoreline Fire,

Shoreline Firefighters quickly controlled an apartment fire tonight in the 900 Block of N 177th St. 

The fire broke out on the second floor of the unit around 5:00 pm. Shoreline Firefighters arrived to find smoke and flames coming from the second story windows. Their quick work prevented the fire from spreading to adjacent units.
